SUPERSTAR: EDIESEDGWICKIn the early sixties women slept with big rollers in their hair. They teased. bouffanted, and flipped their hair. All for the sake of fashion. Vidal Sassoon changed the way women viewed hairstyles. London was swinging with the Mod scene and Mary Quant along with Vidal Sassoon were inspiring a new generation. In Vidal's Madison Avenue salon he was turning out slick- mod cuts. Modern, low maintenance geometric cuts. Sassoon created a short angular haircut that was the recreation of the bob. Edie loved it and wore the look on her straight hair.Parted in the middle and dyed platinum blonde she inspired a whole look. She started a trend.She was the house model for Betsey Johnson and muse of Andy Warhol.
